ERIATA ADESUWA AMELIA

I stared at myself in the mirror. I looked perfect! I was dressed in the school's uniform. A black blazer which had strips of white at the collar and at the pocket, underneath I wore a black waistcoat over a white long sleeved t-shirt. My skirt was an inch above my knees and it was more of a check pattern skirt.

It had black, white and a pinch of brown as its colours. I also wore long black socks which stopped at about one inch below my knee and shiny black shoes.

To complete the look was my tie, which looked more like a bow tie but not really a bow tie and it was the same material as my skirt.

My uniform was one of the things I took pride in, KentWood was unarguably one of the schools with the best uniforms. My blazer was fitted and well ironed. My skirt was moderate, not too short and not too long. My whole uniform was fitted. I had parked my natural hair in a tight updo.

I glanced at my clock.
6:15am

I was early, but not early enough. I picked up my black coloured school bag and I made one last glance at my phone. Phones were not allowed in school and I wasn't ready to get in trouble for breaking the rules, not like I cared but it would ruin my reputation. One which I strived to build, besides I was a forthcoming ambassador and I needed to be exemplary.

I slipped it into my wardrobe and I left the room. I went down the stairs to find my breakfast already on the dinning table. No one was home. Dad had probably gone to work, same thing goes to mum. The house was cold and lonely but I was used to it.

Knowing how angry my mum would get if I wasted food and since I wasn't hungry, I put the food in the fridge. I was neither a breakfast person nor a morning person.

I stepped out of the house and entered the car which the driver was going to use to take me to school. It was a black Acura MXD, what can I say, we are quite the luxurious type. I looked at my wristwatch.

It was 6:20.

50 minutes later, I was in front of my school. I came down from the car and thanked the driver then he left. I straightened my back and but on the emotionless face I had manage to perfect after three years. Then I began my walk into school, counting my steps.

KentWood High School was one of the biggest schools in Lagos State and maybe even in the whole of Nigeria. It had grey, black, white and pale red coloured walls. Different flowers and plants adorned the school environment making it look lively.

I began my famous walk down the hallway, I was tempted to clutch my school bag but that would only show that I was nervous.

I was walking on the alley which demarcated the seniors block from the juniors block and I was about to enter the glass doors when someone jumped on me, like literally jumped on me and I screamed totally destroying my act and making me break character.

I saw the face of Bola grinning widely at me while I blessed her with my famous scrowl.

"Suwa! I missed you. Why are you walking alone na. See how you look like a loner"

Suwa, how much I depised being called that. I only tolerated a few people calling me that. Few people like Bola

"Nawa oo. Earth to Suwa" she said giving me a sassy look and I smiled. "Wow, I made Suwa smile oooo. Everybody oooo, I made Suwa smile ooo" she said screaming like a mad woman while dragging me inside and a lot of people glanced at us including seniors. Some amused, some confused while others irritated at how loud she was.
